Mako-chan was very upset with Usagi-chan today when we were discussing the weekends happenings. Apparently she spent a good portion of yesterday afternoon and evening following Tuxedo Kamen around. Because of what she saw of him she is certain that he is an enemy of ours.
I would like to think that Usagi-chan has demonstrated an accurate judgment of people’s character so far…given despite rumors about the rest of us she has proven that we are trustworthy. There are just so many unknowns about Kamen, and Sailor V even told her to stay away from him, and V has been working as a senshi for so much longer than the rest of us, and does seem to be working on our side…I wish there was a way to know more, but Kamen’s focus for the most part does seem to be Sailor Moon, I don’t know if any of the rest of us would run into him in a manner we could ask other questions.
Rei-chan was grateful to me for taking her place, but I didn’t really do very well. I’m just glad I could spare her from a situation she really didn’t want to be in.
Poor Usagi-chan seems so torn about Kamen and everything though. I wish there was more I could do to find out about him, so I could spare her that also.
As it turned out the crystal was not the crystal we were looking for, as usual, and the enemy did try to make a move on the place. Mako-chan and Usagi-chan were disguising themselves as police to browse the grounds and look for Tuxedo Kamen or any enemy who was approaching.I will add more later, I should try and sleep some more for now…
ETA:
Usagi-chan wound up disguising herself as Tuxedo Kamen in a misguided attempt to divert police from someone who wasn’t actually Tuxedo Kamen. This gave an enemy an opportunity to take the crystal, but Mako-chan and I were able to catch up with him outside.
Unfortunately the enemy who took the crystal had passed it on to someone I’m guessing was a shittenou and he was very powerful. We were able to keep him occupied enough that he dropped the crystal, which turned out to be a fake as it broke into several pieces, but we weren’t able to defeat him by any means.
Tuxedo Kamen was on television this morning. He made a news announcement that he was looking for the Maboroshi no Ginzuishou, and the local population is going mad trying to find the jewel in question and turn it in.
Usagi-chan was very upset this morning when we met to talk about it. Last night she had an encounter with Sailor V and V warned Moon that she should stay away from Tuxedo Kamen. She had been trying to justify to us that he wasn’t as bad as V was intimating and that we should give him a chance, but given he’s a thief and now this statement it’s hard for us, particularly Mako-chan were rather leery of doing so.
To make matters worse on the way to the meeting Rei-chan was approached by a gentleman who believed he had the true crystal and wanted her to protect it because she is a powerful miko and known around here apparently. For reasons she can’t explain to us right now this has made her very nervous. I volunteered to go in her place.
With the disguise power through the phones, I can make myself look like Rei-chan and let her not have to do such a thing that makes her so uncomfortable.
The party was loud. I’ve never really been to a place like that before, but given it was ‘business’ there wasn’t really much of a time to enjoy the party.
I felt a little uncomfortable dressed as a cat-girl, but I could at least move in a gainly fashion than Tsukino-san who was in a giant teddy-bear suit. She was having such problems, that Luna and I went to investigate the crystal ‘back-stage’ and left her on the floor.
As I was wondering around I ran into Rei-san. After some hesitation on both our parts we agreed that we could sort of understand where each other was coming from and that we could work together for the investigating given that two heads was better than one if we came across a youma of some kind.
As it was we did. The lady who was looking after the crystal seemed to have been taken over, was able to get the box away from her so that we had the crystal and the enemy wouldn’t. When the youma appeared we henshined, and Rei-san/Mars told me to get the crystal away from there, she would handle the youma and call Tsukino-san. What we didn’t realize at that point was that there was more than one youma, and I wound up stuck on the roof with them after me, and unable to do anything for fear of losing the box with the crystal in it, until Luna could look at it and tell us whether it was the crystal we were looking for or not.
Thankfully, Tsukino-san and Rei-san were able to rescue me. But we had a problem in that whenever we attacked the youma they would regenerate each other…we realized that we had to all attack at once, but our timing was off and we got trapped behind a building.
Music was floating up from the party, Aino Minako’s new single, ‘C’est la vie,’ Tsukino-san started singing along, and we realized, much to Rei-san’s distress that if we sang along with the song we could keep ourselves in time, and attack in-sync.
It worked, but by then we had lost control of the crystal, and the enemy had it. Tuxedo Kamen managed to get it away from the enemy, but in doing so pitched it towards the edge of the roof. Tsukino-san leapt to catch it, but didn’t have balance and almost fell. Rei-san and I were too far away to help, but Tuxedo Kamen tried, pitching them both off the roof. I was too terrified to even breathe…but then the strangest thing happened. Tsukino-san’s wand/weapon started to glow and an orb of light encircled them and seemed to act like a parachute, lowering them to the ground at a safe velocity.
I thought I would pass out, but Rei-san picked me back up and we headed for the stairs, trying to speculate what could have happened.
Tsukino-san was fine, thankfully, and Rei-san agreed that she would work with us, and that it wasn’t so bad. Although I can anticipate that she and Tsukino-san are going to have problems given Rei-san apparently despises karoake with the same kind of passion that Tsukino-san tries to avoid math problems, and Tsukino-san is rather keen on music, specifically Aino Minako and spreading the good word about her to the masses.
Just a quick note before I run off to cram school.
Haven’t really been able to talk to Tsukino-san today.
Keep wondering about what happened with Rei-san…and also about this Tuxedo Kamen person who was also at the site of the missing girls.
We had to re-open the portal, and he actually helped Tsukino-san get through the portal in time as something was trying to drag her back.
Could it be that the other senshi guardian we’re missing is male? Because I doubt he could be the princess…
